Binary Numeral System

Quantum superposition is a phenomenon in which a tiny particle can be in two states at the same time — but only if it is not being directly observed.

The verbose programming language felt like a universal form of communication—until it didn't.

Classical computers could only imitate trye randomness.

Whenever I get into a new technology, I try to build myself a mental model of how it works. Let's do that for full text search engines, by writing a …

Mike Kohn's music, software, and electronics projects.

Tech expert Kurt "CyberGuy" Knutsson talks about how Google kept Android SafetyCore details quiet until it scanned users' photos.

Oumi's open-source HallOumi tool helps enterprises combat AI hallucinations through sentence-level verification that provides confidence scores, citations and human-readable explanations.

In the second part of this two-part series, we'll look at more advanced Dialyzer use cases.

MRAM can be energy-intensive, but a new generation of this technology will enable greater computing power and resilience, as well as much lower energy requirements.

How topology helps (and what it is)

Diffusion Forcing, a method led by researchers at MIT CSAIL, can train a neural network to sort corrupted data while anticipating next steps. It can make flexible plans for robots, generate high-quality video, and help AI agents navigate digital environments.

Researchers at BitEnergy AI have developed a technique that could dramatically reduce AI power consumption without sacrificing too much accuracy and speed. The study claims that the...

The golden records placed aboard Voyager 1 and 2 each have a cover with special etchings, seen here in this photo from Sept. 4, 1977. These drawings show how

Qubits are the fundamental building blocks of quantum computers — and, when fitted into these machines — rely on the weird laws of quantum mechanics to process calculations in parallel.

Recent advances point the way to useful classical-quantum hybrids

Atomic-scale 2D magnets can be polarized to represent binary states — the 1s and 0s of computing data. These can lead to far more dense and energy-efficient components.
